And the point to be noted that many of the residents do not know that license is needed for operating the lift.

After 7 years, when the 20 team visited the building for inspection the company which fitted the lift failed to produce any permission letter for the lift installtion.On the contrary, the builder claimed that prior to the lift fitting, he had paid necessary fees and documents to the company.
